I broke my denture while cleaning it and needed a very quick repair because I had an event to attend. I called Ms. Gwen and she agreed to see me right away. To cut a long story short, she repaired my denture in no time and it even fit better than it previously did. My beautiful smile and confidence have been restored, thanks to Ms. Gwen's expertise and professionalism. I highly recommend Ms. Gwen at One Day Denture Repair.

The entire staff is caring and very, very kind. I had 17 teeth pulled and a complete set of dentures, I never even felt the normally painful shots, the entire experience was as easy and pleasant as it possibly could be.

I flew in from North Carolina and rented a car in order to visit the One Day Denture Repair Lab in Jacksonville, FL. This will give you an indication of how impressed I was about the work she did for a friend of mine and that transformed his social life in a very positive way. Needless to say, she performed the same miracle with me and gave me a new breath of life, so-to-say. I now look and feel almost like the handsome guy I once was in my younger years, all thanks to Mrs. Gwen, one of the best denturists in the USA and, most definitely, the best in the Southern United States. Thank you for doing such a great job and I won't cease to praise your skill and professionalism.
